So at work… Service Company… Had to expect it at some point… They (they being corporate) decided they want to put GPS systems in our service vans… Guys are hacked… makes it seem like big brother doesn’t trust them… we in the office are hacked… cause it is more for us to keep up with, and more reports we have to answer to corporate on… boss man is hacked cause the cost of these things is out of control and it essentially hits our bottom line… so… no one in the office is thrilled… Van install is scheduled for this Friday….
Today we had our training class on the web site and the units…
It is an internet web conference… Dial in for voice…
I was not thrilled about having an hour taken out of my day for this hand holding session… I have too many other things I need to be doing… but in the spirit of liking my job and wanting to keep my job, I offer to host the training in my office…
So we dial in…
1st sign we get that this is not going to be a typical boring conference is when the guy starts talking… for my fellow WOW players… best description I can give you is… he sounded to me like a male blood elf paladin… twirling… (Yes he is still twirling) to my non WOW readers… he was flaming… hot to the touch… you will get burned if you stand too close to his fire…
It was about this time I look up to see that we no longer have male representation for the class... was that bad… so we are down to 2 women…
I literally laughed uncontrollably thru the 1st 20 mins of this class… have no real clue what he covered… when I was finally able to get some control over myself, I realized that this was GREAT blog material… so I took notes…
The following are the top 10 Greatest Training Class Quotes.
Thank you Sparky for the material!!
… Yeah… the name kinda suits him… kid you not… these are verbatim… I cannot make up stuff this good…
1) If you’re running Microsoft “Exploder” and go to the printer you might find dust on it. (Yeah... exploder... *blank stare*)
2) Your tech could be lost out in the world somewhere. (Cause that’s where we usually leave our techs)
3) I’m the Bad Santa of dispatchers. (*wink* aren't we all *purr*)
4) I’m doing the whole Miami Vise thing and I have to patrol the shore. (Cause pastels never go out of style?)
5) I am a circle guy. I never even consider the rectangle. (I myself am all about the moon) (Ok seriously wtf is up with this guy?!?)
6) If you’re best friends for life with your landmark, you can keep it. (Why thank you! I will treasure it always!)
7) He can go to a new development just being discovered. (Cause in 2008 we are still discovering new land in America)
8) We have 18-25 different flavors of reports. (Do you have Rocky Road?)
9) It would acknowledge the methane sensor, because your employee can blow up with out it, and that’s not good. (Ya think?)
